Parker in News & Observer) If it hadn’t been for Lueky Lind bergh’s Paris flight and Oliver . Smith’s golf it is most unlikely that Lieut. Bill Winston’s !:;ht ever would have been yanked front under its bushel. | Like most good birdmen, tin young man who taught the youth j whose flying the whole world is talking about how to fly, hats mighty little to say—about him self. i * £ut golf sometimes draws 'fluency from the unloquaeious, es j peeially when the drives are going straight and putts dropping right. So it was on the course of the Carolina Country Club that Oli ver Smith, himself wearer of the I). S. C. for bravery in France, ) learned that BH1 Winston, of Wendel, North Carolina, taught Charlie Lindbergh how to fly. Modesty exacts no premium of those who sing the praise of another and Warrior Smith told Flyer Winston’s story. Winston, engaging WenddlPs best at check ers during lapses in reports on Lindbergh’s progres, reluctantly j admitted that most of it was so. One thing he corrected. Report i had it he had 4,000 hours in the ' air to his credit. “Really it is only about 3,700— I haven’t done much flying this year. When I left the army air service I had more flying time to my credit than any one else in the service, but I am sure somebody , has passed me since then,” he ex plained. ! Aviation enthusiasts here shook their heads, 3,700 hours in the air is a long lime. They doubted if there are many records to surpass i it. Army fliers do about GOO hours a year if they are lucky. It would take a long time to roll up any thing approximately Winston’s record, all certified in black on white in his pilot books. Winston is a native of North ! Carolina—born 31 years ago at j the ancestral Winston home about two miles this side of Wendell. His father, J. P. Winston, is a double first cousin of the noted Judge Winston, of North Carolina. He has been flying ten years, j Contrasting quiet of the Win I ston home place to roaring air plane motors was chosen by the I Tar Heel flyer for his vacation j when he left off piloting the big Fokker passenger planes between Philadelphia, Washington, and Norfolk. W’ith hhn are his wife, who wass Miss Katherine Cosbv of Richmond, and th?ir daughter,1 Elizabeth Avery, aged 1. In the summer he is going to the mid-west for another fling at passenger flying, but that is leav ing the real story. Like Lindbergh, Winston avoid ed a life on the farm by taking up flying, but under different aus pices. He had put in his time at j Wake Forest and moved over to Chapel Hill for a fling at medi cine when the war broke out. That was a signal for Bill Win- j' ston to drop his books and hie over , to Raleigh, where he applied for admittance into the naval aviation corps. The examiner^ turned him down. Over at the Army recruit- ! ing headquarters they did the same. A lad of slight frame then, he failed to impress the hurrying medical men. IJut the aspirant for pilot’s wings was undaunted and knocked on the doors of the Army recruit ing station at Greensboro. Ac cepted, he learned flying himself to such an extent that he was as-! signed Br«ok* Field, Texas, as ! flying instructor with rank of mas-' ter sergeant. Brooks is the elementary j school, and it was there that he i had as hii pupil young Lindbergh.1 In addition to Brooks he sow service at Kelly Field, San An tonio, Texas, where advanced fly ing is taught, and at Carlstrom Field, Arcadia, Fla. While in Flor ida he flew over the entire state photographing and ninpping land ing fields. Out of the air service with a re- ' serve commission, he wen- in for . commercial flying in the United States after deciding the future of aviation was brightest here in stead of in the South American countries, from which he had of fers. Last year when the Mitien in terests in Philadelphia decided to establish an air anil mail passen ger line between the Quacker City, Washington and Norfolk, they picked Winston to pilot one of the ■ big Fokker ships—the same type ' that Byrd used to fly over the , North Pole. All during the Sesqui-Centen nial Exposition he winged his way between the National Capital and the airline terminals without an accident to a single passenger. During this period he carried many notables, but none he re members more vividly than Will Rogers, who rushed straight from an interview with President Cool idge to catch Winston’s Philadel phia bound c’okker. During the flight the famous humorist passed up a note to the pilot. “I wonder,” it read, “why anyone should be hurrying to Philadelphia?” It amused Winston i mightily, He has at least two hobbies, long conversation and witnessing the search through his possessions for the "Lindbergh” pilot book showed. They are stamp collect ing and “crack-up” collecting. The laymen call it a “smash” when an airplane falls, but the birdman calls it “eraeking-up.” In only one serious accident dur ing all his ten years of flying, LiJ?ut. Winston has gathered an imposing array of photographs of j comrade’s mishaps. “Wasn't that a beauty,” he com mented over a picture of two wrecks that had been airplanes before they collided in mid-air. “Nobody hurt.” Pilots in other planes hadn't J>een so fortunate, it was reveal ed. There was a picture of a ship and an ambulance in mortal em brace. “Knocked our new ‘meat wagon’ over first day we had it.” Winston commented on the abili ties of tome student flyer, fi "Had an awful fight here,” he commented, as a picture of one airplane landed square on top of another came to light. “Fellow trying a ‘dead-style’ landing. Other one waiting 10 take off. Both pilots jumped out and start ed fighting because the other had not gotten out of the way.” “Good friend,” he observed, fin gering a photograph of ihe char red frame of a ship in which the burned body of the pilot was quite visible. “Some of the best flyefs we trained got killed—others quit.’ A splintered fragment of pro peller blade told the story of the sad end of another “buddy.” Ten years of flying can make a than calloused where the ordinary mortal’s blood would run cold, but it failed to rob the Tar Heel ! veteran of his modesty and natural charm—yet if it hadn’t been for “Lucky” Lindbergh’ flying and Oliver Smith’s golf,.Bill Winston’s candle probably would have re mained under the bushel.
